THE latest returns from Tuesdays
election seem to indicate that Amend
ment No. 8, authorizing cities OF over
1O,O0O inha bitants to frame their own
charters, has been adopted by a fair
majority. 1t is, however, believed
that Amendments Nos. l and 2 have
been showed under by the vote OF the
interior counties.

New YORK, May 3O.-The streets in
the lower part of the city to-day were
deserted, and there was general sus-
pension. business. A, che public
buildings were closed. The postofiice
was open until 10 O'Clock. Thele was
one mail delivery. The custom house
was open for an hour. The streets in
the vicinity of Union and Madison
squares were crowded with pedestrians.
A large number of people went to Riv-
erside park and Gen. Grants tomb.
AT 10 o'clock the procession started,
headed by the Tenth Regiment band of
Albany, which preceded the Old Guard.
These veterans acted as escort and guard
of honor to Gov. Hill, who, with his
staff, were followed by carriages con-
tanning Gems. Sherman and Sheridan,
Mayor Hewitt and Gen. SickleS and
other invited guests. A squad of
mounted police preceded the First
Brigade, n. &. S., n. Y, which acted as
escort to the veterans. Gen. Fitzgerald
was followed by the Seventh regiment,
in command of Col. Clark. The Sixty
inland, was out in full force, and
the red in plumes. The second
place of honor in the National
E Guard escort was accorded the Twenty
second regiment. Then came in their
r,oGder the fifteen divisions of the Grand
Army of the Republic and memorial
/ organizations. The battered battle flags
bWere carried proudly by the SCARED vet
Grams of KalteS Post No. 80, who carried
fifteen of the battered banners. The
\ parade was interspersed throughout
with carriages containing the manned
) and invalid veterans of the several posts
. who were unable to march with their
comrades. 1t is estimated there were
J, u, 600 men in line. Gov. Hill reviewed
the procession atMadison square.
= Early in the day Mrs. Grant stood at
!, the tomb of the here of Appomattox,
and entering placed
HER PERSONAL TOKEN
of flowers upon the steel caSket within.
Though the narrow space was filled
with foliage, hers was the only offering
of blooming flowers. All else were
heavy leaved and dark green plants.
Then Mrs. Grant went away to her
home, not to be present when the public
should come to the services there.
The arch of the tomb was covered with
white immOrtelleS and in purple these
words: ''In War Foe, in Peace
Friend" From cross above an arch
hung a Grand Army badge of purple
and blue immOrtelles three feet in
length, sent from Chicago In the cen
ter OF the iron-grated door was wreath
of Western pine, having center of
crimson roses. Thomas post sent it from
Deer Lodge, Mont. There were offerings
from the viccroy of China and his min
lister here and the loyal legion. Twenty
thousand people were there when the
services began at 4. Grant post, of
Brooklyn, was in charge, assisted by
Morgan and Hamilton posts.

GRAND FORKS, OAK, May 3O.-Rain
has been falling through the valley
since Saturday night almost constantly
and the parade and other ceremonies

A Big Crowd Present.

New YORK, May 3O.-The biggest
crowd that Jerome park ever held gath
cred to-day at the opening of the spring
meeting. Fully $4,000 people were pres
ent. The weather was lovely and the
track fast though dusty. The racing
was excellent and the honorS were di-
vided between favorites and fielders.
The features of the day were Hanover's
easy victory for the WitherS and the
grand finish between Oritiamme and
War Eagle for the Ferdham handicap.
Orifiamme won by short head. SO
close was War Eagle, however, that
most people thought it draw heat.
First race, five-eighths of a mile straight
away, lchi Ban Won by head; Pampero
second, Patrocles' third; time, 1:014.
Second race, one and one-siXteenth miles,
Hypatia won at will, Buffalo second, Nellie

Fourth Round-DaIforth made good
showing in this round. He landed sew
eral effective facers with his left, al
though his ruShes were generally in
effective, and Warren made several
sharp counters. The round, on the
whole, was in -Danforth's favor, who got
in a hard left on Warren's mouth at the
close.
Fifth Round-Was lively. Warren got
Danforth'S head in chancery in clinch-
ing, and there were cries of foul. Both
landed sharply number of times, and
Danforth's left eye showed signs of
closing.
Sixth Round-Was the most exciting
of the contest and was decidedly in
Warren'S favor. After several ruShes
on the part of Danforth Warren forced
him into his corner and sent him
against the ropes with Il blow in the
neck. Danforth rallied and fought back
wildly. Warren easily lodging him.
Seventh Round-Was characterized
by clever work on both sides. Warren
got in telling body blow on Danforth's
body with his right, and followed it up
with facer, which made Danforth open
his mouth. He rushed Danforth to the
ropes again, but the latter successfully

old soldiers. He said that as an old sol
der he was proud to help decorate the
graves of his old comrades who had
fought with him on the bloody battle
fields. II have seen many men to-day
who did not present the appearance
they did when they went to the front.
Time has left its mark upon us and It
will not be many years before you, chill
dren, and you, Sons of Veterans, will
be called upon to decorate our graves as
we now decorate the graves of those
who have gone before"
A memorial hymn by the pupils of
Winthrop school followed, and bene-
diction by Rev. Father O'Reilly closed
the exercises. The children then adj
iourned to the Maple Hill cemetery and
the Catholic cemetery, where the graves
OF all the old soldiers were decorated
with flowers. Among the many de-
signs was handsome monument, ON a
small scale. 1t occupied prominent
place on the stage and attracted much
attention.

Place Of

OUR LAKE SERPENT.

No longer can the impudent and opu-
lent proprietorS OF Eastern water places
eXasperatingly flOunt the tales of their
rumored sea serpents in the face of the
inland resorts with ironical pity that the
latter could not allege even so much as
a garter snake among the attractions of
their obstetrics.
With its customary enterprise, the
West has at last undone the East by out
doing it, and the latter must now hide
its diminished head. Snakes in the alb
stract are the reverse of desirable, as
any maiden who delights in woodland
walks, or any convivial gentlemen, in
clined to excessive alcoholic indulgence,
will testify; but if things have come to
such pass that every summer resort
must have its sea serpent, it was simply
in the natural course of things that the
West would produce one bigger, uglier
ard more startling than all the effete
East has been able to discover put to-
gether. And it was perfectly fitting,
too, that the necessary ophidian should
be found lurking in Lake MinnetOnka,
for is not that the queen of Western
watering places. The GLOBE has for
some time heard of the existence of this
monster, and naturally enough doubted
its existence. The researches of COM
potent representative, however, have
fixed its actually without a doubt and
a favoring moment even enabled an in
stanteous picture to be obtained.
That this is the only genuine sea SER
pent people have only to read in an
other column to be convinced beyond
doubt, and they will also doubtless be
gratified to observe that the. product is
on scale that does the West credit.
We do not fancy that bathing will be
extremely popular in Minnetonka this
summer, though very likely some in
genious individual may discover
method of tanning the serpent and rem
dering it tractable.
But the chief difference between this
lusus nature and those of which the
East makes such proud vaunt is that
while they exist chiefly in the magma
tive brain of speculative hotel keepers
it has a veritable habitation in the
waters of MinnetOnka, as any doubling
